Variety shop joins Downtown Suffolk’s retail scene
Downtown Suffolk welcomed a new neighbor in their business lineup Saturday morning. Next to Nothing Variety Shop, located at 157 W. Washington St., celebrated its grand opening on Saturday, Feb. 3, with both store staff and Suffolk City Council marking the occasion with a ribbon cutting. The store offers various products for shoppers, such as new and used fashion apparel, accessories, furniture, home decor, and more. Vice Mayor Lue Ward congratulated the Next to Nothing staff for choosing Suffolk to embark on their business venture.
“With all the interest we have and all the investment we have going on in this area, we welcome you with that vision that you had to open up this store,” Ward said. “…You could’ve picked other places, but you picked Suffolk to grow with us and for that, we really thank you so much and right now, congratulations on many successes for you.”
Following the ceremony, as attendees had a chance to browse and shop, Next to Nothing Store Owner Latreva Mitchell talked about how “excited” she is to finally get the store open.
